Golfer Reviews
Fun to play desert course for reasonable rate
Cart paths and carts not in good shape. Course conditions were as good or better the the other citycourses in Tucson.. I will play sveral more times before we leave, it is a good test and well designed course,
Great desert course
Enkephalins golf course is a limited fairway course, meaning it's mostly desert with target locations for landing your ball. Intimidation abounds as you look out from the Teebox over long expanses of desert. The emphasis here is on ball striking and if you can strike the ball well the course is very playable but woe to the golfer of many errant shots. Course condition is excellent and the greens are challenging without being overpowering. This course is a good test of golfers ability to strike the ball and keep it in play. I would recommend it to anybody looking for a good and enjoyable challenge to their game.
Great Course but in Need
The greens were very good but most of the course needed some attention. It is much better than last year, but would be the best if it got some more attention....carts are on their last legs. This course is a very challenging test and forces you to be accurate.
Challenging, but not beautiful
I like this course for its lengthy holes. The difficulty is moderate. It is truly a desert course, very drab and dry, not a great course if you love luscious green landscapes, but overall there is beauty here with the mountain backdrops. I recommend playing this course.
its a challenging course some narrow fairways and sloped fairways
i was pleasantly suprised last time i played here it was in bad shape,greens were in great condition fairways in decent shape enjoyed playing this course more challenging than other city courses
Enjoyable desert golf
Fun. Loved it. Hills and dales and desert. Good greens. A little rough around the edges, but lots of fun. Kind of quirky in a very enjoyable way. Nice scenery.
Great desert course
Fred Enke seems to be improving all the time. Greens are in good condition and maintenance is watering them. Staff is easy to work with and talk too. Just a really pleasant time at this course and it is not my first.
Enke
Very challenging course. City of Tucson needs to give this gem some tender loving care. They should bring it up to the standards of Randolph and Dell Urich.
Keep it in the fairway!
Great fast greens, good tees, and great rolling fairways. Just keep your drive in the fairway and out of the desert. Pay attention to the layout of each hole for best results.
True desert course
I really enjoyed this municipal course. My buddy and I liked the contours and the overall layout of the holes. Some other "city" courses here try to hide the desert aspect of the area. Fred Enke embraces the desert and does a good job incorporating the natural field in play.
none
Only problem was the fairway conditions. Which is to be expected for winter. Very enjoyable golf for the money. Being retired that is a help. Thanks Merry Xmas.
Tucson's most challenging city course.
Easily Tucson's most challenging city course. Lots of open desert. High lost ball potential. Beautiful grass. Fast greens.
THE WOMEN WHO WORKED THE PRO SHOP WAS A NASTY PERSON.... SHE COULD NOT BE MORE UN CUSTOMER FRIENDLY AND NASTY THAT WE WALKED OUT AND DID NOT PLAY...
THE WOMEN WHO WORKED THE PRO SHOP WAS NASTY CONDESCENDING AND A HER ATTITUDE CAUSED US TO WALK OUT AND GO PLAY AT ANOTHER COURSE....
I CANT UNDERSTAND HOW SHE IS WORKING AT A GOLF COURSE, SHE SHOULD LEARN HOW TO BE CUSTOMER FRIENDLY AND NOT BRING HER UNHAPPINESS FROM HER LIFE TO HER JOB.....
Course was in very good condition. Tees were set back (I guess they will be moved up for the weekend golfers).
Golf was great. Scoring left much to be desired - but that was the golfer.
Nice Target Course
This is definitely a course where accuracy matters more than distance. I used every club in my bag during my round. I'll definitely come back.
Fun to play
We played 9 holes and really enjoyed our time on the front 9!! We will return.
challenging deaert course
Great desert course where you need all of your clubs,accuracy not length is critical for scoring. The overseed of the greens came in good.
good $$ value, tough test of your target golf skills
Overall a decently maintained public course and infamous for its target golf style layout. Sprinkler went off during our round on hole #8 in the landing area of our tee-shots..but overall a good experience. bring plenty of golf balls if you target game is "off". The City of Tucson should keep this course alive if at all possible.
